I do not have to lease my ice tools, after cobra successfully broke into fort knox by telepathically controlling a herd of radioactive brontosauruses.

I think 6mm perlon is perfectly adequate for the job, and 7mm can be unwieldy to tie three legs of a cordolette together or to have hanging on your harness. Just to point out, Gene's calculations above assume two anchor points perfectly above the power point, with zero angulation, which is essentially never the case. The forces on each leg will be considerably greater as these points move apart. It's generally a good idea to have a healthy safety margin between the material breaking strength and the maximum load you anticipate, rather than simply counting on the rated strength. I like to use a general rule of thumb that any knot in a cord reduces the strength by 1/3rd.

I love the footage of driving in the Ghost. Classic! seems like a bit of a faux pas to be hacking away at ice nine like that though. but what do I know

Is the kid on the left wearing a Real Madrid uniform???

...because reality is such a pain in the ass.

You quickly realize in ice climbing (at least on the waterfalls in Canada) that it's always "your gully".

nice! ever wonder why everyone chooses to bite the head off chocolate easter bunnies first? there's a master's thesis in there somewhere...

Ah that makes sense. How sensitive of them.

On a related note how did "Growing Pains" get away with a character named "Boner"

aahhhhh, ice climbing.

and maybe a calendar

Ow! My cognitive dissonance! Cognitive dissonance has been considered the gateway to new concepts and ideas. Even my diaper jokes provide a learning opportunity. You should be paying me for opening your mind with this spray.

He ain't the only one

I make a hilarious diaper joke and you call me sick and now you are all like "Erock I want to have your baby!" after that mediocre beastiality post. What up?

THAT is just WRONG

Serfs up! -Spartacus

uhm and does anyone find it slightly ridiculous to have a gun that can only point forward and is always firing while biking? seems a little dangerous.

nice find alpinfox. olyclimber- now you see what I'm up against. Japanese poser gijoe guys on tricycles

hell yeah I do, I'd bike to work with a lit flare in my ass if it kept the SUV cagers at bay.

haha! prepare to die. ever been poked by a kickstand?

this is more likely because I'll be on the can for the next day or two. this golean stuff has some weapons-grade fiber content.

I've almost eaten an entire box of golean crunch. this stuff is like yogurt-covered crack

Great report, thanks. I love these ones.
